ONWARD SEATTLE

On Wednesday Nathan, Derek, and I are heading to Washington for a 2 week long road trip of sorts!
first night is Sanfransisco

second night is redwoods, hopefully we can find bigfoot AKA Yeti Man while hikinh for 3 days in the Jurassic forests

Then on to Portland

Then Seattle where my girlfriend is flying in and our friend kelly will be. Nathan is unfortunately continuing onward with his journey to WHATTHEHECK Fest to see some rad black metal and folk bands...jealous for wolves in the thrown room...

then Mars Hill and we head home, for 18 hours...hopefully stop in San Luis Obispo for sleep and showers. Pray for us, for things to go well with the car, and hostls and money etc etc

Update from the road!

robe dipped in blood

Sunday i left for San Luis Obispo to see my girlfriend and see Mewithoutyou at the downtown brew. Sunday was great, tried to surprise Jackie and it sorta worked :) Monday i spent 9 hours by myself, driving around SLO, went to Avila Beach and took millions of pictures of fat seals and hung out at 3 different Starbucks', Higher grounds and the Nautical Bean. Read the cheesiest book called wild at heart at the park downtown, while a Boy acting like a girl, and girl, and a lesbian hung out behind me talking so loud and laughing so hard it wasn't easy to concentrate so i left for another coffee shop to watch sermons until Jackie Got off work.

The we went downtown, went shopping, ate a realy nice dinner and walked around more. Afterward we went to move the car cloer to the venue Mewithout you was playing at, then started walking around. thats when we ran into Aaron Weiss, and we talked for a while, and went to second dinner with him. well we had a smoothie he had food. It was the most humbling conversations ive had. Then went to the show, danced for an hour, left and knocked out.

The next day i left early cause i had a cold, i still do, it sucks... Anyways here are some pictures for whoever read this whole thing.

Celebrate Good Times, come on!

Its a cloudy Saturday afternoon, Dodgers are looking good against the Angels right now, I went shooting for the first time this morning! The only thing that would make this night a little better would be if Jackie was sitting next to me rooting at the t.v...tomorrow!

As im typing this the neighbors who live behind us are doing karaoke so loud i can feel the bass, yes the neighbors who where naked when my Dad asked them to turn the music down...



I woke up 5 mins after i was supposed to meet Cameron and Mario at starbucks...so i woke up on the way to the shooting range, and was sad cuse i left my cameron, ear plugs, and im sure somehting else, im the car at home. But it was awsome getting to know some of the men at RBCR and shoot a gun (my first time)...

oh the weight of it all

lord fill this summer with tons of opportunity to spread your word.
make this summer different then the rest of them all.


i need to organize my room, car, computer, and head lets get started!

MUSIC:
A band that i have been following since high school, except i don't remember it being a full band...anyways great new ep go listen!
The Honey Trees

STEUNBALK

In highschool I hated Summer, growing up in Southern California does that to you though I think, well, growing up in Riverside County does that to you. Walking out the door in fear of being knocked in the face by the sun, the constant sun screen feeling, sleepless nights, gun shots, and burned feet, ok I added the gun shots part, mabey. Anyways my point is since highschool Summer has ruled. Last summer i drove cross county with friends and lived out of a van for 2.5 months. This summer a few friends, my girlfriend, and I are making pilgrimage to What the Heck Fest off some island in north west Washington. Were making it a 2 week quest, San Fransisco-1 night, Redwoods-3 nights, Portland, Seattle, Anacortes, and finally San Luis Obispo. It will be grand, Ill actually cover this treck better then last summer, lousy 3 posts?.

Im also trying this gardening thing...you know growing yor own food, its easier then waiting in line at the sotre I think, and it gives me like a definit 20 minutes a day to spend with Jesus talking about random stuff under the sahde of my newly revived apple tree :)
